[Discuss] Debian Updates for aarch64 Lag?

[kentborg at borg.org (Kent Borg)]

I've always noticed Debian updates for aarch64 seem to lag x86_64, but 
with the new flood of bugs found by LLMs swamping open source 
maintainers, the delay seems to be getting worse. As things strain, 
things might break. I hope whole architectures don't go fallow.

This might be a case of my getting burned by being non-standard, in this 
case using Raspberry PIs as (quiet, power efficient, small!) servers. 
Given the fact that Raspberry Pi is a real business that apparently 
makes a profit, I would think they would be in a position to make 
updates, but maybe they are just leaning on overwhelmed Debian folk.

-kb, the Kent who doesn't need to weigh in on whether open source is 
more secure to observe that it is open source and source code is quite 
amenable to LLMs finding bugs.
